Art Show Dec 2019 - Gallery One Ellensburg

These pictures are from the 

Gallery One resident artist show Dec 2019

Smokey Quartz and Sterling Pendant - Mid Century Style

This is a piece I made for my neighbor.  It is smokey quartz set in sterling and fine silver.

The stone has a "high dome" cut.

I tried to get a good balance or proportion to the various parts.
I never really like things just plunked "in the middle".

That would look like this.

Scorpio Rings - Wedding set 14k Gold

A wedding set for some friends of mine and of the Gallery One

This is the same basic design I always like to make.  
The Scorpio ring.

Sizes 12 and 8

There is always a last piece to cover the seam.

Tourmaline - 14k Gold Rings

These are rings I made especially for the Gallery One resident artist show in Dec 2019.  The show theme was Green.  So, these are green tourmaline and 14k.

They are not quite a matched set, but one women's and one man's.

On my hand

These are very high quality stones.

                    

                        

I always like slightly crooked designs.

Custom settings for each

 

 

I accidentally silver plated this one a day before the show!  Es no bueno, but I can fix it.

EDOX Bluebird - Automatic

Here is a watch from my collection.

This one is an EDOX Bluebird from the late 1970s.  The dial has a great color and I love the orange second hand.

Yellow Sapphire and 14k Ring

Yellow gold and antique yellow sapphire.

Off-center setting.

The stone's cut, the fact that it is natural and was in a 22k gold setting made on a hob, make me think it was maybe 1820's India.
